Creative Execution

We created the SHOCK BANNER, a banner where the user is able give an electric a shock by clicking the image of each gents on the banner. The click instantly resulted as an electric shock o the arm of the interviewee in the studio. We needed something strong and engaging to create a buzz and also communicate what we can do.

Radio Helsinki got the highest ever listener engagement. Eka Ruola and Ami Hasan received a staggering amount of electric shocks. The banner was also a huge PR success, for example The Guardian, Agency Spy and Marketing & Advertising magazine in Finland wrote about it.

hasan & partners, an advertising agency in Helsinki, acquired 51% of a digital agency Perfect Fools in Stockholm and Amsterdam. Both agencies wanted to have as much publicity as possible for the new marriage. Along with the normal PR campaign, the CEO and Chairman of hasan & partners were invited to Radio Helsinki, a pop culture radio in Finland, for an interview about the acquisition. Agency mergers are often communicated with a lot crap about world domination.We decided to let the audience engage with the show through a banner on which they were able to give an electric shock to both gents if they said something stupid. The primary target audience was the marketing community in Finland.
